Evaluation of clinical efficacy and laboratory indicators of non‐cultured epidermal cell suspension and hair follicle cell suspension in surgical management of stable vitiligo: A randomized comparative trial

The median cell yield was eight times higher in ECS than in HFCS with a significantly higher percentage of HMB45+ melanocytes in the former group. The median percentage of re-pigmentation in both groups was 90% at the end of 36 weeks. ECS provides faster re-pigmentation; however, both ECS and HFCS have comparable safety and efficacy over a longer duration of follow-up.
